Straight up casual racism led to this gentle young man's death. WE have to do better. Good luck with that, eh?
Yes it did. I hope this is at least small solace to the family.

Bet you didn’t know that we have people in this forum that have the believe Elijah McClain is just as responsible for the racism levied against him.

Too bad people like you didn't care that much about him while he was alive!

Spare us your fake sympathy. Far as you are concerned if a cop does anything to a black person it's justified.
My heart breaks for Elijah and he will always be in my prayers. I'm sorry that happened to him, that made me angry.

I support cops that do the right thing, I do not support police brutality, I never have. What I say is that you can't paint with a broad brush on every cop. That's my point.

You are full of shit. Just spare all of us.

Just go back to your covert racist posts like, "Hey since all you black people do nothing but complain about police let's just remove all of them and then see how you people behave"

Fuck off.

There are Black activists that do not want police presence in Black towns and suburbs, so why should police continue to patrol there? That would lessen the tension. That is a solveable idea.

Since you don't understand English, I'll try a language you are more familiar with.

Иди к черту

Paramedic convicted and sentenced to 5 years.
The killing of Elijah McClain was truly a most awful thing. The sentencing of those who did it is sending shockwaves through the "community" of first responders. Well, should they feel they are exempt from prosecution? Why? There's no justification for that, especially if they do things they should have known better to have done. If you don't know what you're doing when it comes to administering drugs you better not do it. In any case, McClain had done nothing wrong and his emotional state was all about fear of being abused by authority figures, which is exactly what happened, abused to death no less.
